NO EXITS

On the seventh day (or week) at precisely 1:32 AM, everything resets. Everyone trapped in the experiment falls unconscious only to wake up… not in their assigned bed, but somewhere on campus.

Also you might be a vampire. (Or a werewolf. Or a powerless human.)

Good luck.

RPING THIS PLOT: EASY MODE

Your character wakes up as a vampire, werewolf or hunter somewhere randomly on campus, and you don’t know why. Also, the campus is a little different. None of the rooms have wards. Also it’s surrounded by woods and there’s day/night? How weird.

RPING THIS PLOT: OPTIONAL MODE

You come up with a backstory for your vampire, werewolf or hunter that fits in with the plot details below. It explains why your character was on campus, their goals/motivations, and why they woke up where they did the moment the campus Derlethed itself. You can spend an AC to have your character be their AU self or play with some of those AU memories.

RPING THIS PLOT: SUPER EXTRA MODE

Writing backstory logs or narratives about your AU character while your regular character may or may not have any idea what’s going on in the present. Similar Concept: writing logs or narratives that jump between your character’s past AU self and present clueless self. Have fun playing with structure!

PLEASE USE CONTENT WARNINGS

Violence can be fun and cathartic to write, but let's also be especially mindful this plot when it comes to writing and include those warnings. Particularly if anyone eats another character or if there is fire or being burned by the sun or otherwise involved. Thank you!

BACKGROUND

The cataclysmic accident that has happened to so many other Derleths in so many other dimensions did not happen here. Instead, tragedy was averted by the brilliant minds at Derleth, forever destined to be unsung heroes.

Rumors of an experiment that could trap people in spacetime, however, circulated amongst certain circles. A group of supernatural hunters got together and decided they could trick a large population of power players in the vampire and werewolf communities into showing up, and dump them between dimensions, never to hurt an innocent again.

The plan mostly worked. The heart of campus was evacuated due to a “gas scare”, the vampires showed up, the werewolves showed up, but most of the hunters were unable to escape before the experiment went off, and they’ve all been trapped together ever since.

Sometimes these alternate Derleths get close to one another and can have an effect. This week? You’re all vampires, werewolves or hunters physically without the memories of what actually happened.*

*Unless characters wanna spend an AC and be that AU version as well.
